A more challenging cider for the connoisseur. Again, Dabbinett apples feature highly in the blend along with other traditional bitter sweets such as Harry Masters and Ellis bitters. Not so dry as to be unpleasant, just slightly sweeter to ensure a crisp balanced cider where all the flavors really shine through.

Box @ Coracle, Ironbridge. Pours gold with a light mist. Super fleshy apple fruit on the nose. Excellent medium dry character, lots of fleshy ripe apple, nice tannic grip, light acidity. Very good medium dry.

[10/2/13] Cask at Bull And Last in London. Slightly hazy golden. Aroma of apples and quite a bit of rotten eggs. Flavor is a bit sweetish, with apples and some sulphur. Light-bodied. Not great.
